Speaking of speculating dotty, I remember in 1988, going to Cheltenham for the old Mackeson Gold Cup meeting, the first time I'd been racing for years and I was steaming, and by the time the big race came round I was nearly a grand in front and I decided that I was going to blow it all on a horse called Pegwell Bay ridden by "The Scu" finding the bookie offering the best price I waited in line and every time I moved up I shoved some off my money back in my pocket eventually I ended up putting £500 on it and it steamed home,at if I remember rightly 5 to 1 making me a tidy win, but not as much as if I'd followed my first thought
